OUT OF THE DEPTHS ‐ SCULPTURE SHOW IN LOCHINVER
For a period of three weeks from 2 nd ‐ 24 th of July, the building still known as ‘Mackay’s fish shed’ by Culag Park in Lochinver Harbour (IV27 4JF), is being used to host an exhibition of sculpture made from materials found on the shores of Assynt. Over time, Nigel Goldie has gathered large quantities of the discarded waste from fishing activity, including rope, nets, creels, broken buoys and all manner of other plastic fragments. Also of interest is the varied natural waste arising from the tides, storms and the organic changes occurring to the plant life under the sea. Kelp and other sea weed possesses many qualities that present a creative challenge, not least the way it continues to respond to its environment, in particular moisture in the air. The centre piece of this show is an installation of multiple mobiles made from organic and plastic waste. Open from 2.00pm to 6.00 pm everyday except Monday (free entry).
